Thursday 17th May 2012

Well what a rush today has been, weight watchers this morning, out for lunch and garden centre with hubby and then called to number one son's to pick up their two budgies that we are looking after while they are on holiday. I am just having a quick coffee and then am going out again. Oh what it is to be retired :-)

This card I am entering for CD Sunday challenge - Reflections

The base card is blue card matted with spotted backing card from the Seraphina and Friends CD . The backing paper in the frame and the frame are also from the Seraphina and friends CD. Both images are stamps from a Cupcake Crafting Range and they have been coloured with Promarkers. The butterfly has been cut with the Silhouette, the flowers and the plaque are cut using Spellbinder dies. The frame, plaque, butterfly and flowers have been distressed with Adirondak egg plant.

About Me

Well what can I tell you about me? I am a retired Intensive Care Sister, my job was very stressful and crafting was my stress buster.
I have done many craft from an early age, knitting, crochet, cross stitch, dressmaking etc but card making remains my guilty pleasure. I have recently tried scrapbooking and I quite enjoyed that.
I have been married for 46 years to my lovely husband Tony who is also my best friend.
We have one son who is a Paramedic Emergency Care Practitioner and a Daughter in Law who is an Intensive Care Staff Nurse
